Two ice skaters stand together as illustrated in Figure (a). They "push off" and travel directly away from each other, the boy with a velocity of v = +0.42 m/s. If the boy weighs 718 N and the girl 450 N, what is the girl's velocity after they push off? (Consider the ice to be frictionless.)

Two figure skaters are coasting in the same direction, with the leading skater moving at 5.5 m/s and the trailing skating moving at 6.2 m/s. When the trailing skater catches up with the leading skater, he picks her up without applying any horizontal forces on his skates. If the trailing skater is 50 heavier than the 50-kg leading skater, what is their speed after he picks her up?
Ken and Barbie are skating together on a rink at 3.00 m/s. Ken keeps asking Barbie how much she weights. Annoyed, Barbie pushes away from Ken so that she speeds up to 4.0 m/s and he slows down to 2.25 m/s in the same direction. Assuming that the friction is negligible, if Ken's mass is 70 kg, what is Barbie's mass?
Dale, Mel, and Shanelle are astronauts on a spaceship. They each have the same mass and the same strength. Dale and Mel decide to play catch with Shanelle, intending to throw her back and forth between them. Dale throws Shanelle to Mel and the game begins. Describe the motion of Dale, Mel and Shanelle as the game continues. If we assume that each throw involves the same amount of push, then how many throws will the game last?
A child with mass of 16.5 kg stands on the edge of a park bench and leaps into the air. Her initial speed is 2.4 m/s directed at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. After 0.28 seconds what is the horizontal component of her velocity in m/s?
A robot with fancy wheels is trained to move in two directions simultaneously. The force in the forward direction is 10 N and the force in the horizontal direction is 8 N. If the robot starts from rest, has a mass of 75 kg and travels for 100 seconds, what is the magnitude of the robot's final displacement?
A loaded gun is dropped on a frozen lake. The gun fires, with the bullet going horizontally in one direction and the gun sliding on the ice in the other direction. The bullet's mass is 0.04 kg, and its speed is 325 m/s. If the gun's mass is 2.2 kg, what is its speed (in m/s)? m/s
A 75 kg fisherman in a 135 kg boat throws a pile of 0.80 kg rocks towards the shore. If he throws each rock with a speed of 15 m/s causing the boat to move, how many rocks must he throw per minute to maintain a constant average speed against a 5.0 N force of resistance?
Two ice skaters stand together as illustrated in Figure (a) below. They "push off" and travel directly away from each other, the boy with a velocity of v = 0.68 m/s to the left. If the boy weighs 746 N and the girl weighs 488 N, what is the girl's velocity after they push off? (Consider the ice to be frictionless. Enter the magnitude only.) m/s
An archer pulls a bowstring back a distance of 20 cm with an average force of 85 N. The arrow has a mass of 20.0 g. When he releases the string, what is the velocity of the arrow when it leaves the bow? 41 m/s 1.2 m/s 39 m/s 32 m/s 22 m/s
A clever coyote uses rocket powered skates to try to catch a roadrunner. The mass of the coyote is 38.1 kg. If the coyote starts from rest, and accelerates to a final speed of 26 m/s in a distance of 2.4 m, how much thrust force did the rockets excert to get him to his final speed? Assume this thrust is constant over the 2.4 m.
A horizontal force of 12 N pushes a 0.50-kg book against a vertical wall. The book is initially at rest. If = 0.60 and = 0.50, the acceleration of the book is (in meter per second squared)
A small rocket for gathering weather data has a mass of 30 kg and generates 1500 N of thrust. On a windy day, the wind exerts a 20 N horizontal force on the rocket. If the rocket is launched straight up, what is the shape of its trajectory, and by how much has it been deflected sideways when it reaches a height of 1.0 km? Because the rocket goes much higher than this, assume there’s no significant mass loss during the first 1.0 km of flight.
